Choose compact or full-sized 12V winches 

The size of your vehicle determines the size of your winch. For example, compact winches are more suited for smaller boats or vehicles like ATVs and UTVs. Without compromising quality and power, they’re designed to be lightweight and small to easily fit into tight spaces on your vehicle or boat. However, if you drive larger vehicles like SUVs and trucks, a full-sized winch would be more compatible with these types of cars.
